Best upgrade I made was Carbotech XP10 and XP8 for the track. It was pretty nice being able to charge into corners lap after lap and not have the brake pads disintegrate.

[QUOTE=CrazyPhuD,Jan 29 2010, 09:33 PM] The killer is that Endless rotors/pads are just so spendy, fine for the street but not so hot for the track.

I run Cobalt Friction pads for the track, so consumables aren't much at all. Keep in mind that my pads and rotors last a lot longer than I got when I using stock rotos/calipers.

Best mod for me was brake fluid and pads.

I'd like to find a stronger rear caliper though. It just flexes so much.
How do you know the rear caliper flexes so much? I'm just curious.
